SteelSeries Ikari Laser
Published by Bogdan Alex, on May 7th, 2008, in the categories: Game Mouse
SteelSeries claims that it has put 15 months of extensive research of ergonomics, technology, shape, motion, hand grip and play styles into their Ikari Laser mouse. It seems that SteelSeries has collaborated with professional players in order to come up with better shape, materials and specifications for the Ikari. Players from Team 3D, compLexity, mousesports, SK Gaming, Team NoA and other world-class gaming organizations provided valuable feedback for the Ikari model.
Ikari is practically made by gamers for gamers, featuring programmable macros for RTS and MMO games and a high precision sensor, especially suitable for FPS gamers. Ikari is also a completely driverless solution, which enables the mouse to remember settings and macros when plugged into tournament computers - without installing any drivers or software.
Here are some more specs:
- 40.000 samples per second (SPS) for unbeatable tracking
- 1 to 3.200 DPI (changeable in increments of 1)
- Built in LCD display (on the underside) to help set CPI values on-the-fly
- Chassis material and shape best suited for professional gaming
SteelSeries recommends a £60 price for the laser model.

Wow, I need to get me one of those! I hope it'll last long though, I have a good mouse that has lasted for 3 years now, and it still hasn't had any problems at all.
